An infectious disease prevention supporting device according to an embodiment of the present invention is an infectious disease prevention supporting device including a processor. The processor is configured to perform a detection process that detects a motion of a forearm or a wrist by a user, a proximity determination process that determines whether the user's hand is in proximity to a mucosa of the user's face based on the motion detected by the detection process for a predetermined period of time, and a warning generation process that generates a warning to suppress the proximity of the user's hand to the mucosa when it is determined by the proximity determination process that the user's hand is in proximity to the mucosa.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
2. The infectious disease prevention supporting device according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to generate a warning to the user by a vibration, in the warning generation process, when it is determined by the proximity determination process that the hand of the user is in proximity to the mucosa to touch the mucosa with the hand of the user.
3. The infectious disease prevention supporting device according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to generate a warning to the user by a visual means, in the warning generation process, when it is determined by the proximity determination process that the hand of the user is in proximity to the mucosa to touch the mucosa with the hand of the user.
4. The infectious disease prevention supporting device according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to generate a warning to the user by an auditory means, in the warning generation process, when it is determined by the proximity determination process that the hand of the user is in proximity to the mucosa to touch the mucosa with the hand of the user.
6. The method according to claim 5, further comprising generating a warning to the user by a vibration when it is determined that the hand of the user is in proximity to the mucosa to touch the mucosa with the hand of the user.
7. The method according to claim 5 further comprising generating a warning to the user visually when it is determined by the proximity determination process that the hand of the user is in proximity to the mucosa to touch the mucosa with the hand of the user.
8. The method according to claim 5 further comprising generating a warning to the user audibly when it is determined by the proximity determination process that the hand of the user is in proximity to the mucosa to touch the mucosa with the hand of the user.
9. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program that causes the processor included in the infectious disease prevention supporting device to perform the processes performed by the infectious disease prevention supporting device according to claim 1.
